Weschler Memory Test (WMS) is one of the most important tests to distinguish normal aging from cognitive impairment. Logical Memory Test is the subtest in the WMS. The Three Words and Three Shapes (3W3S) test is a frequently used memory and learning test in our country. 3W3S has both visual and verbal modalities and it is also short and easy to use. This test allows us to easily distinguish normal aging from other dementias. In this study, normative data were collected for both tests. The aim of the study is to identify normative values of our country using the two subtests with new addition of recognition and cue recall subtests to the Logical Memory subtest. In this study we have 389 participants and their ages are 50 years and above. According to the results, it was found that both the 3W3S and the Logical memory Test performances were predicted by age, gender and education variables. Apparently, the scores of the 3W3S subtests for both shapes and words sections and Logical Memory Tests decrease when age increase and education level decrease.
